Start the new year with the January 2026 Recall, featuring five episodes focused on the topic of AI in neurology. The episode begins with Dr. Stacey Clardy talking with Stephen Marche about the evolving topic of natural language processing and its impact on neurology and everyday life. The episode leads into a conversation with Drs. Halley Alexander and Sándor Beniczky discussing the use of AI to accurately interpret routine clinical EEG. The conversation continues with Drs. Trey Bateman and David T. Jones discussing the use of FDG-PET imaging and machine learning to improve diagnostic accuracy. The episode transitions into a discussion between Dr. Andy Southerland and Dr. Adam Rodman regarding the implications of LLMs in clinical reasoning and diagnostics. This month's Recall concludes with Dr. Stacey Clardy reflecting on how AI is shaping multiple aspects of life, including podcasts.
